Terry has a Camera system dilemma

Terry, you have a 70-300 is that correct? If I remember correctly you got some good shots with that in Carmel.

Enjoy your Sunday meditations by the pool!!!

a tripod is what you need just to hold up the piggy 6008; three legs is barely enough ;), fortunately mine has a hook to suspend the sack of anvils (lenses)

Thank you John . . . . I found one of those behind a door in a cheap room in Schinoussa once . . . I could hardly lift it up, even without the anvils.

I'm still no wiser about the 6008 though!

Yes,
I do have the 70-300. It is pretty slow at 4.5-5.6 and I did notice that I didn't have a enough shutter speed (need to bump up ISO) on a number of Carmel shots at the long end. Need to work on that if it is to be the answer. I'm still not used to Nikons lens lineup in putting a system together. So many tradeoffs.
